Default Stupidity strikes again!

God I feel like such a dip. Here'* what happened. I was parked up my MSU and I admit, I was parked really stupid. Two cops pulled into the parking lot so I decided I better move the Bonnie. Easy 'nuff. I moved to the next set of parking spaces and parked, shut off the engine. Finished lunch with a friend sitting shutgun and tried to start the engine. Not even a click. I was just sitting amazed, NO! The battery can't be dead! NO! So I tried to pull the key out, what the. . . won't come out. Tried starting it, nothing. Tried sweet talking it, nothing. Turns out I had left the car in drive, but the parking brake was on so the car didn't lurch when I let off the service brake. I feel like such a dumb a$$.

I've done that before. Spent about 4 hours wondering what was wrong until I bumped the unmarked Hurst floor shifter....
