If you look real close at the above picture, you will notice "Luddite Lee" is holding a motorcycle helmet.  It has the words "Finky Lee" on it.  What are friend for?  Luddite Lee was playing a joke on Finky Lee, whom I am pretty sure did not know of the label on the motorcycle helmet.  All in good fun.
