I realize we want to be proper and all that but other than that what was the original purposes of capitalization. Surely we can regonize the beginning of a sentence without capitalizing the first letter unless the writter forgot to puntuate the end of the previous sentence. I also realize that we capitalize letters in other instances. I am sure there is a legitament reason for all capitalization but I just don`t know it. Sucessfull no rules text messaging brought this question to mind.

Colby Nargang's performance at Telemiracle 27 in 2003 opened the doors to many opportunities and he has been increasingly busy performing ever since. He realized one of his dreams when he performed as a special guest at Rory Allen's Valentine Concert in 2004. In the fall of 2004 he had a wonderful opportunity to meet the Jordanaires at an autograph signing session and sang Roy Orbison's "Only the Lonely" with them. In February 2005 to celebrate his 18 th birthday, he traveled to Memphis, Tupelo, and Nashville and he recorded a demo at Sun Studios where Elvis and Roy Orbison started their musical careers.

Although he has many challenges in his life, including problems with his sight, he compensates with his talent and personality.

Colby's manager, booking agent, sound and light technician, chauffeur, and anything else that needs to be done is his Grandpa, Jim Nargang.
