Bill, The main problem with what you want to do is that you have mentioned an IP address for the outside interface (s0), assuming that your ISP assigned the IP to you, but you don't have network IPs for your inside network. If you were to have a bunch of IPs (minimum a /27 for your example) routed to your serial IP then you do not have to run NAT and your ip route statement is OK. However, if you are not provide a /27 IP Space and have to "fit" all of the hosts on your internal network onto the one IP for Internet access, then you do need to use NAT because you will have to use private IP space (192.168.x.x/24, 172.16.x.x-172.31.x.x/16, or 10.x.x.x/8) and those won't route across your Internet connection.
Seems to me that CCNA is the track you want to be on.
