oh man car won't start need your guys help
I thought at first it was the battery because the starter seemed to be kickin on slowly, more slow than usually. I got a jump pack from the wrench down the block and threw it onto the battery, no luck whats up?! I recorded a WAV of the startup to aid in the diagnosis. Please help guys. First time she has never started.<ul><li><a href="http://12vaudi.com/Misc/20050322094946.wav">WAV sound</a></li></ul>

Sounds like your not getting enough fuel or a proper spark.
Not so sure where to check, but if you can take a fuel pressure reading, and pull your spark plug to see if its fouled up or even sparking.

Don't bother with new plugs, just pull one out ground it out and crank the engine to see if you have
spark, if it arc's over then I wouldn't worry about spark (check all cylinders though) next move on to fuel. Or if you have the tool you can just pull the wire and plug it into the little tool, fire the motor over and you'll see it blink.
You should be able to pick one up at autozone for short money.
Do you have an alarm that could be arming the system or something, anything weird happen lately??
