Default SOLVED: I'm Back! Car won't start now!

SOLVED: After successfully learning how to replace my air intake manifold gasket from you guys here:
https://honda-tech.com/forums/tech-misc-15/another-fluctuating-idle-beginner-make-progress-3104948/
and driving for a year and a half, I have a new problem.
My car won't start now. No warning of anything amiss. I drove it for 15 minutes to the bank. Did my banking and came out to a car that wouldn't start. Battery is good. All light's on dash are ok when in ACC mode. No sounds from starter. Nothing. Had someone try and jump start (I have a refurbished battery) and that didn't work. We push started it and I drove home.
I have very little experience with cars but I design websites for a living. I love a challenge, rather than code, it's mechanical and I find it more satisfying when I can fix it myself!
Where do I start?

That's NUTS!
About 6 months ago I fixed the rubber stopper on my brake pedal! Brake light was constantly on and killed my battery. Through this forum I found the solution without posting.
Before I posted today I saw a little rubber nub on my floor and thought it was odd, figured it was off the back of my floor mat!
Little late tonight to fix but I'm gonna call this one solved. Thanks grumbly Marc!
