Well, I had to have the car towed and serviced at the shop.  Turns out the lead to the negative terminal on the battery was cracked.  This made my changing it myself impossible since the lead needed to be changed as well.  It was $65 for the tow and the mechanics charged me $25 for the labor, so all in all I had to pay around $100 for it to be fixed.  But it is fixed and that's what is important.  Next thing I need to do with the car is get the oil changed.  

Of course, while I was trying to do it all myself, I was thinking, "Where are the Top Gear guys when I need them?" (Thanks BBC America).

Glad to hear the car is running again and you are mobile :)

Glad to hear you are mobile again, and that it didn't turn out to be extremely expensive. Bad enough, but...

Don't forget to change the oil. :)

Those Top Gear guys would have come in handy.
