Paul, essentially straight and as close to a straight line as 9999999999 something or 1.000000000 something are the same damn thing! It wiggles around a bit as it approaches the Solar System, but when moving between foci, on that long haul, essentially straight. Perhaps this chart will clean things up:

Time Period Angle South Orbit Constellation
8/1996 11 degrees normal left of Orion's shoulder
12/1997 6 degrees normal left of Orion's hand
1998-99 1 degrees retrograde left to right over Orion
3/2003 5 degrees retrograde in Taurus
pre-passage 32 degrees retrograde right of Orion
