I would like to decipher the key lines in the above message. 
I think I know what some of them mean. The line beginning 
with OUT is the key element I would like to know.

kernel: Intrusion -> # This is the message header
IN=ppp_0_35_3 # This is connection config ID
OUT= MAC= SRC=173.73.2.60 # I don't know what this is
DST=63.209.236.25 # This is my ISP assigned address
# The following lines describe the data packet, its time to 
live in milliseconds etc...
LEN=48
TOS=0x00
PREC=0x00
TTL=113
ID=5380
DF PROTO=TCP
SPT=56551
DPT=42065
WINDOW=8192
RES=0x00
SYN URGP=0
