You might try directly examining the watchdog table to see if there are
errors there, using PHP Myadmin or some such tool. 
 
also you could hard code in your theme some PHP error set directives. 
 
I think there must be erros that you aren't seeing - something like:

Thanks for the suggestions all. 

My host actually has the memory limit set to 32M. I increased to 50M,
but still nothing.

I tried the suggestions from the handbook page, nada.

I also tried switching to the garland theme, turning off friendly urls,
and turning off all modules. nada 

I looked at the error log, but it didn't tell me anything useful.

next I created the db from scratch. This made the site show up. Then I
turned on every module on one by one. The site is still showing. It
looks like I have no choice but to rebuild the entire site. I'll be
honest, this really blows.

	Check your webserver error log.
