If you don't hear the fuel pump turning on then it could have gone bad.

Check your fuel pump relay under the diver side kick panel

You can disconnect your fuel line from the fuel filter under the car and jump the pump again too see if your getting gas to the engine, just dont start a pretty little fire =). Replace the relay first though, did you run it out of gas anytime recently?
