homebrew installation working, but brew not working OSX 10.8.5

I know that this isn't something that I do on a daily basis. However, this is really weird. I installed Homebrew using : ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"

The I actually got this response:

"

You will actually think that this installs it. But then I do brew doctor and this is the response:

brew help -bash: brew: command not found

Add the following to your shell configuration file (i.e. ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc):

export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH

Start a new terminal session and things should be fine.
