Help with circuit?

Hello, I need help with this circuit. I didn't post this in the homework section because it isn't homework I'm just doing this for fun.
circuit:

image isn't working so here's a direct link: http://imgur.com/i5fSX

It is a 5 V input and three 100 OHM resistors in series and one LED. I can't measure current through it because fuse on multimeter died. I'm sure that 5 v is coming in because I tested that and the resistors are 100 +- 5 ohms I tested that too.
I have these leds (http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...ductId=2062588) from radio shack and people on the website say that I need around 300 ohms at 5 volts to run turn them on but nothing.

I hope you guys could help out a circuit noob

You know you have 100Ω resistors, measure the voltage across the resistor, then calculate using:

Weird, I'm getting zero voltage across the resistor

It looks like you are off by one hole in a couple of places. Rows of holes are connected, columns are not.

Thanks a lot man. Yea this breadboard is different from the one we use in class. I was looking at everything else but it was just this simple fix.
after I measured the voltage now I'm getting 0.1667 like expected :)

thanks all for input
