It only confirms that you have an intermix problem; could be a few different things as suggested by some of the others.

If you care about your car, I wouldn't suggest driving it. An intermix of coolant and oil is not going to do any bearing surfaces any favors. Have it towed! Any money you might save by avoiding a tow bill would quickly be ate alive by the cost of a complete engine rebuild/replacement.
