My ~/.bashrc file at this moment says:

# .bashrc

# User specific aliases and functions
alias ls="ls --color"
alias ll='ls -lh'
alias ssh='ssh -Y -C'
alias useflag='grep /usr/portage/profiles/use.*desc -e'
alias su="/bin/su"
export CPATH=/usr/kde/3.3/include/:$CPATH
eval `ssh-agent`

# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
. /etc/bashrc
fi

#export CLASSPATH="$CLASSPATH:/home/michael/projects/java/myFantasy:."
export PS1='\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[01;34m\] \W \$\[\033[00m\] '
export PATH="$PATH:/home/michael/.bin"
#export CVSROOT=/var/cvsroot

I don't HAVE a ~/.bash_profile.
