Well, as it's done for the likes of Rosa Parks, Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash and Pope John Paul II, the Evanston, Illinois-based Legacy.com obituary repository has opened a "guest book" for folks who want to say nice things about Hoffman that, ostensibly, will be read by his family. So far this morning, three people have offered their condolences and thank-yous ("Thank you for the laughs that still endure today," says Ray from Camp Hill, Pennsylvania). Hoffman has a long way to go to catch Walter E. Jagiello, the self-proclaimed "Polka King" who died Thursday of heart failure at the age of 76. (Jagiello's best known as the author the Chicago White Sox fight song; no idea.) Legacy offers the postings for free, and posts them after its editors make sure they're, ya know, appropriate--and how do you judge such a thing for the guy who co-founded National Lampoon? Make sure they're full of curse words and naked boobies? On second thought, probably not. --Robert Wilonsky
