He's Not "Hugh"!
Just a small note-from the new page owner: It seems that "Greg Laurie" is often mistaken for British actor Hugh Laurie, who plays the role of Dr. Gregory House on "House, MD", the popular TV show. In fact,several photos had to be removed. Anyone who has, or will have, the authority to change pictures-be careful!
