When I went to see Arlo Guthrie last month - for $10 bucks, did I mention, bwaa-ha-ha-ha - he spent about ten minutes talking about the story of Joseph, and how the littlest action - the most insignificant thing - can change the world for the better.

He told the whole story of Joseph: Dad likes him best; the brothers plotting to kill him; Joseph going out to find his brothers, but not finding them until some guy said "they went thataway"; the brothers kidnapping him & selling him into slavery; Potifar's wife; the whole prison-dream thing; Pharoh's dream & Joseph's interpreting it; Joseph saving Egypt; the brothers coming for food; & Joseph saving his family; Moses, David, Jesus & Paul and the Apostles; how Mohammed was influenced by Judaism & Christianity; and the modern world (he covered alot of ground).

"And just think," he said, "the whole course of human events, the most important religions in the world, and none of it woulda happened without one guy saying 'They went thataway.'

"And that guy probably went home, and his wife hit him with the rolling pin and said, 'You shoulda told him your name! We coulda been in the Bible!' "
 

Absolutely unrelated to anything here....

Bert's a cat! 'Berto's a Canucklehead! Headline says: Nonis buys a vowel.

Now Clouts is disposable. Maybe he will go south as well. Tampa Bay is looking for a goalie (as are dam' near everyone else, including the Leafs, the Sens, the Bruins -- MTL if Huet goes for a walk -- as well as St Lou and maybe DET; FLA should be, but they think that Auld can do the job) and they all have some good young players to throw VAN's way should they dish Clouts.

Clouts won't go for much -- not with Giggy and Nabakov and Raycroft on the market too -- but maybe a bit of young talent & a "leader" player might carry the day. OR they use Clouts to take OTT's Havlat headache off their hands...

Anyways, now the Canuckleheads have the money to sign Jovocop.
 

But with wanting to be able to sign Luongo will they have enough cap room to sign Jovocop?
 

Naah, on second thoughts, they won't be getting Jovo back. He's pro'lly gonna sign with FLA as well; his wife likes it better there.

They're likely sending Roberts back to TO for something cheap, like Telqvist, to free up extra room -- plus he's worried about his 16 year-old daughter being alone @ school.

I wonder where Morrison's wife wants to be?

It's all about family, after all.

Sheena sure hopes so, anyways. With 1200 relatives, she's 1/2 way to the YA besteseller lists for her book.
 

I've seen Bert take control of a game, and I have seen Jovo take control of a game. With those two gone, who is going to carry the team when someone has to step up and lead?
 

For better or worse now, the team is the Twins. And, unless they make a doozie trade -- either Morrison or Naslund -- they wil lose Carter to UFA disease.

Oddly, Toronto is looking very good alla sudden. Good young goalie: check. Gigantic mean tower defender: check. Five offensive defencemen: check. Very strong faceoff guys (Sundin & Eric & Westwood were all above 55%): check. If the Big E is able to transform himself into Dale Hunter, we have the rebirth of the '90's Washington Capitals here, kids.

Of course, the Toronto media are apoplectic....
