Question Won't start

This is the second time lately. I go to start the car, hear the normal pre-start sounds as I turn the key, but nothing happens when I get to the full ignition position with the key. I try again, and hear nothing at all this time, no start. Nothing happens in park or neutral. Acts like a dead battery.

When it happened a week or two ago, I called road service. They arrived in about 20-30 minutes and of course it started right up for the guy. He tested the battery, etc., with a meter (tests alternator, etc.) and found no problem. I drove it home and it's been fine until today.

Recently replaced plugs, plug wires, air filter, cap and rotor. No battery corrosion.

Thoughts?

Thank you! in advance.
