Hey guys. Well today I went for lunch, got back to work and the car was fine. After work I turn the key and car wont turn on. The lights, the radio, everything works but it just wont start. I have a half tank of gas so I know is not that. Tried to jump start it and still no go.

Any idea on what it could be??

hit the starter with a big rock until you do some damage.

Starter is dead or Battery is dead.
Sounds like your starter is messed up.

Try to pop start the car, if that works. You have a starting issue.

To anyone who cares...

Got a friend to take me down to work this morning, smacked around the starter a bit and she fired right up. Picked up a new starter right then and installed it. Took all morning but now she starts up just fine.

Thanks to all of you guys who helped. I swear this site is the greatest lol.

Thanks a lot bros!
