Convenient To?

That phrase is a real head-scratcher for me. I see this quite a bit in remarks for homes for sale.

"This home is convenient to a local park." Or "dining room is convenient to sun room."

Does "convenient to" work alone in a sentence? It strikes me as incorrect; like there are words missing.

What do you think?

Comma Sense

I have comma trouble.

You, see, I, apparently, really, really, really, like commas.

I've found a couple of online pages that help with correct placement, but I thought I'd see see if any of you (of course the copywriter in the bunch is coming to mind, cough, cough, Lois.) have any tips on how to remember comma rules. Because I think they'd help with my other problem:

I. Really. Really. Like fragmented sentences. Have you noticed that?

While we're on the subject, let's talk semicolons; I'm already salivating in anticipation of our upcoming dialogue!

I am Ross.
