I am closer, but my $PATH is still messed up.

This in .bash_profile

> export PATH=$HOME/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/opt/local/share/man:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:$PATH


gets me this when I source it

> env: bash: No such file or directory
> dude at mac:~/Extra/sand$ echo $PATH
> /Users/dude/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/opt/local/share/man:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:

notice the trailing ":" 
removing it gets me a no such directory error for "/sbin$PATH"
