Unhappy Car wont Start

Having problems with my 2000 Firebird starting it. Turn the key and nothing but if you wait 5 - 10 minutes it will start and then sometimes it will just start on the first turn. Anyone have a solution?

Loose or otherwise bad ground connections would be my first guess...

Does you car have an alarm system? Sometimes those act funny when starting the car. My 1996 TA does the same thing.
