Klimt-Abstract and Concrete
If there wasn't the figure of a woman at the top of this one, it would be an entirely abstract piece.
this is a fairly concrete scene...
But a detail of the foliage could easily be an abstract painting of its own.

MoMA portraits
We worked ourselves from the bottom floor upwards and the art got progressively better as we went: One final bit were portraits and I liked them a lot.
"Self-Portrait with a Cigarette" by Max Beckmann

Another self portrait of the artist as he paints a portrait of a model.
Scenes from MoMA
Below are some phone pictures I took at the MoMA but first, an original composition of my own made from coasters acquired at the gift shop:
Wife and green swirly picture
Eldest daughter evaluating Jack the Dripper.
The first one was made of some 40,000 squares and the artist drew in red or blue based on if consecutive numbers in a phone book were even or odd. Tedious but anyone could do it. The other one seems almost impossible to execute: I couldn't even look at it very long, yet the artist had to make perfectly regular lines of even curve and continuous change to the thickness of the lines.

MSM And A Tale of Two Stories
Mattress Girl Story:
MSM--Let's talk about the problem of campus rape.
UVa Rape article in Rolling stone:
MSM--Let's talk about the problem of campus rape.
Both stories debunked:
MSM--Let's talk about the problem of campus rape.
Rape, both on and off campus have been declining for decades:
MSM--Let's talk about the problem of campus rape.
Rudy Giuliani suggests that Obama does not love the United states:
MSM--Let's talk about why this idea is pretty believable to many if not most Americans.
Kidding!
MSM--Let's attack the former mayor of NYC.
MSM--Let's attack any Republican that fails to disavow Mr. Giuliani's claims.
It is a lot like your run of the mill progressive: They will happily defend socialists, vote for them and support socialist governments around the world. If you call one of their politicians one, they will act like you are the reincarnation of McCarthy!
