Blade Runner and Big Chill are right. The “LM” stood for “Legomancer” and is for easy IDing of lines. Use your own initials when supplying a line.

Can’t answer any of the above, but I’d like to contribute:

K\*1: “Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.”

K\*2: “…The words that are spoken at a funeral are spoken too late for the man that is dead. What a wonderful thing it would be to visit your own funeral. To sit at the front, and hear what was said - maybe to say a few things yourself…”
