I've been reading the Odd Thomas books my Dean Koontz and just finished Odd Hours & Odd Apocalypse. I'm really enjoying them a lot. I do tend to like stories with characters that can see the dead, but I wasn't sure about reading them with the passing of my parents this Spring. However, the...

Frank and Louie, the two faced cat, has died at the age of 15.

The inventor of Kevlar, Stephanie Kwolek, has passed away at the age of 90.

I have to say I really enjoyed Spider Girl when it came out. You might also want to look at Runaways. I know neither are The Avengers or X-Men, but they're about teens and pretty good.

Since you like The Dresden Files, you might like The Keeper's Chronicles by Tanya Huff. For more fantasy/humor, I also recommend Zelazny's Bring Me the Head Of Prince Charming (there are follow up books to this, but I have not read them) and Esther Friesner's modern fantasy Elf Defense...

I didn't watch The Waltons, so I didn't know Waite from there. I know him from NCIS where he played Gibbs' dad, Jackson Gibbs. I had a feeling this time was coming, but it doesn't make me any less sad. I loved Pop Gibbs. :(

Famous internet cat, Colonel Meow, died Wed night.

They're only 1/2 an hour each, but The Amazing Screw-On Head & A Wish For Wings That Work are two very strange, but cool animated films. Screw-On Head is from Mike Mignola and Wish for Wings is an Xmas cartoon with Opus & Bill the Cat from Breathed's Bloom County/Outland comic strip.

Snopes & HoaxSlayer. You can take a chance with your pets, but I'm not going to.

Cats & dogs can't have grapes. It's supposed to effect their kidneys and can cause death.

That was J. Arthur Crank.

He was good friends with The Rat Pack. My favorite movie with him is Robin & the Seven Hoods, with Frank, Dean, & Sammy. YouTube - ‪Robin and the 7 Hoods Trailer‬‏

It just seemed like it had a totally different flavor than the teasers from The BBC, for say Children of Earth. It was very slick, polished, & over the top, which to me says major motion picture or made for American TV movie.

I wasn't impressed. It looks all Americanized and I don't want that in my Torchwood.
