1st real interview

I interviewed with San Antonio last week. One professor asked me if my hobbies included Art history. I said truthfully no, though I had taken a general course or two about Art appreciation and history. She explains that Pathology and Art parallel in that one develops the visual acumen to identify markers that reveal the artist/cause of the piece/specimen.
I almost said, "Well, I liked playing 'Where's Waldo' as a kid," but I realized that while looking for a plasma cell in a sea of endometrium might be similar to finding Waldo, the comparison was lacking a lot of what the Art History analogy covered. So I kept mum, and I believe wisely so.
