Stories and short humor by Abner Serd

Storyteller Abner Serd specializes in short humor with a twist. His stories often pull the listener out of the normal sphere of reality and into a surrealistic landscape populated with eccentric characters who nonchalantly redefine common sense. Think of these stories as comic strips for the ears: short, daily doses of whimsy. What yarns will Abner spin today? As Jimmy Fingerbutton the inventor once put it, "the world is full of things nobody ever thought of before."

Abner Serd is the pseudonym and alter ego of Rick Taylor. This series originally appeared as a podcast - the podcast feed can be found at: http://abnerserd.com/feed.xml
