Starting Issue

Got in the truck and started it today- it was cold and damp with a wet snow falling. Let it warm up for about 15 seconds and started to backup when I noticed our school passenger van behind me (thought it had left allready) and put on the brakes but didnt push the clutch in in time and it stalled. Anyway, when I went to start the truck after the stall, the truck wouldnt turn over. Plenty of juice from the battery but it wouldnt start. Tried taking the key out and trying again and then nothing happened - no juice going to the starter(no cranking or clicking or anything) - but juice for the stereo and everything else was fine. Anyway, after a couple more tries, I got out waited a couple minutes and tried again. This time it tired to turn over and just didnt want to...finally the engine caught a little, I gave it some gas, and the truck finally started.

Started and stopped the rest of the day multiple times and started just like it normally does, which is fine.

so I am sure it is nothing, but what could of caused this - what was going on? Thanks!

Check and clean your battery cable ends.That would be my first move and then check level in the battery.
