Gravy

-noun-

1.	the fat and juices that drip from cooking meat, often thickened, seasoned, flavored, etc., and used as a sauce for meat, potatoes, rice, etc.

2.	Slang. a. profit or money easily obtained or received unexpectedly. b. money illegally or dishonestly acquired, esp. through graft.

3.	something advantageous or valuable that is received or obtained as a benefit beyond what is due or expected.

I'm not sure if what I'm about to mention is valuable, but it is certainly unexpected. When I went to Oxford, England for three weeks with a summer study program, some of the girls from our group decided that I was "ubiquitous," rather more a force of nature than a mortal human. To this day I have no idea why, but the idea stuck (that, and using my Christian name as a verb meaning roughly "to wander about in an unbounded way, with one's purposes unknown to any other"). Well, just recently one of the girls, an art history student, came across this:

Maurice Denis. Homage to Cezanne. 1900. Oil on canvas. 180 x 240 cm. Musée d'Orsay, Paris, France.
