MORE O2 sensor crap!! Help!

I tried to get my old sensor out today, first with a 22mm (7/8") open
end. No dice. Got a real O2 sensor wrench from AutoZone, and succeeded
in stripping the shoulders off the sensor. Grabbed on with the biggest
set of ViseGrips I have, and THEY slipped! This was AFTER I dumped
almost a whole can of PBlaster on it, AND ran the car to heat up the
system, hoping it would help. What the hell do I do now? The damn
thing won't budge. Cat removal isn't an option, as the entire exhaust
system is welded.
My next trick is ViseGrips and a torch, heat the connection and see if
it'll break loose.
Any tips?
