Airport/Internet connect no longer in Finder

[Snow Flow]

So, I just noticed, that I no longer have the airport bars (where you can select what airport network you want to use) in my Finder bar. Its just the volume, battery, country, date/time, bluetooth, and spotlight.

Any suggestions on how to fix this? I had no idea what to even search on the mac help so... I came here

System Preferences --> Network.

"Show: AirPort" menu, then AirPort sub-pane.

Click the check box for "Show AirPort status in menu bar"

At least that's what it is in Tiger...Leopard is probably something similar.
