car won't start

about 6 months ago my car was unable to start, i had to get it towed for $160.. and the next day, the car started up no problem at all, right away.. it was just sitting the night.. It's also worked totally fine, until a few days ago it happened again, wouldn't start. I came back the next day, and still wouldn't.. then I came back a few hours after, and started right up.. I used it a couple times.. then again it wouldn't start.. the car's stranded like 45 minutes from my house now..

I can't hear the starter click or anything.. The battery is totally fine..
I'm thinking it has something to do with the security cutting off the ignition.. but I dunno much about that.. anyone have any suggestions/info?

ok thanks, I'll look into it.. I just don't get why it's randomly working though.. I can't just "jiggle" the key around... when it won't start, it really won't start.. and then when it works, it works no problem..
