another dead boxster @#$%!

on the first leg of my daily 100 mile round trip, almost to my my destination, 4 miles out on the interstate. big puff of blue smoke, another big puff, running rough. shut it down coasted to a stop. tried to restart and clunky noises ensued.
so now after being towed, I'm sitting here in my shop wondering how I will get the 50 miles back home tonight to my trusty 92 jeep comanche with 160,000 miles on it. I bought the porsche 1 year ago with 52,000. I've driven it 35,000 miles in that year with no real problems but it looks like I have the had the big one.
I'm not far from atlanta, north alabama so I'm hoping I can send it to jake to see if it's salvageable.
the car is in very good shape with 86,000..... except for the dead motor..
somehow it's a little easier knowing some, maybe a lot of you can feel my pain.

do I call Jake? just take to a P dealer and let them bend me over? scrape it?
geeez....

Thanks for listening. I'll appreciate your opinions...
