lol - (and it's "damn it"  ) YES - there are far too many comma-crazed writers out there.
eta - although maybe you used "dammit" in a colloquial sense. If so, I apologize.
I also dislike the mailboxes that say "The Brown's". Again with the apostrophe! What is it The Brown owns? Do you perhaps mean The Browns, as in more than one Brown?
