Let's dig deeper. Do you have a working wireless interface?
Code:
admin-ben@Langweiler:~$ iwconfig
eth0 no wireless extensions.
lo no wireless extensions.

Are there any clues as to what happens or doesn't happen when you do:
Code:
sudo ifdown wlan0 && sudo ifup -v wlan0
Code:
admin-ben@Langweiler:~$ sudo ifdown wlan0 && sudo ifup -v wlan0
ifdown: interface wlan0 not configured

RTNETLINK answers: File exists
Failed to bring up wlan0.
You have 'auto wlan0' as well as 'auto eth0.' That implies that you want both connected on boot. Is that true and if so, why? I suggest you comment out auto eth0: {It is because I will be bridging or ICS or somthing soon}
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
#WiFi
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.0.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1
