How to fix MySQL load issues on OS X

This is only for those who encounter the same issues. Sometimes we're not so lucky with mysql and I worked with an Australian developer who said he never got mysql installation right the first time regardless of whether he was using a Mac or Windows. I never had the same problems before until now. I am using OS X 10.6.6 and MySQL 5.5. I now feel his pain. Why is it so effin' difficult to get it "working"?

ActiveRecord Migrations for Sinatra

Sinatra ActiveRecord MYSQL ORM | comments

I have learned that Sequel ORM was simple and is the preferred ORM for Sinatra developers. But I feel so attached to ActiveRecord right now. Basically some of the gems I am using are actually extensions to ActiveRecord and I have grown to love these Ruby gems despite being ActiveRecord-centric. They wouldn't work with DataMapper or anything else.
