Default I really need help.

Hey, I came home tonight (just now) and parked my car behind my truck (which I need for work at 8 A.M.) The car is a 2000 Trans am. Ok heres the problem I went to take the key out and it didnt want to turn down to pull it out. So... I start to wiggle it and pull gently and it pulls out with out the key hole thing turning down. so im like what the hell I put the key back in and it wont turn either way. I got no idea what to do. First thought was to call a locksmith, but I dont even know what the problem really is and I got $6.

Sounds like you need to tear the the column down and replace the Key cylinder. It might be something in the linkage binding up too.
