Can anyone offer some hints for 1st approach troubleshooting?  

For the past several weeks when I turn the key it would not turn over,
crank, nothing, silent!  I turn the ignition on/off a few times then it
fires right off.  This morning however I could not get it started at
all.  Is it the starter or something else (solenoid/key switch?)

Thanks guys, this list has saved my butt and wallet more then once!
