Off the top of my head, this sounds like a B2 piston failure--abrupt loss of forward gears, but reverse works fine. Here's a nice little write-up about symptoms and repairs. If it's a B2 problem, the good news is that the transmission can be fixed without removing it from the car.

Pulled into the street to go to the store. Ooops, had no forward gears. But, I did have reverse - so I drove about 50' in reverse and parked. Tomorrow I will go through the simple stuff like "is there ATF in the case" and "has any linkage fallen apart" But, just in case it is more serious - Nate are you still friendly with the Pasadena Tranny man? And, what is his contact info? And Rob, didn't you have someone in the O/C - or was that for A/C issues?
