Kendra has, in her time, arguably put together the most impressive track record of anyone who has played this game. I have had the great pleasure of being her friend and seeing our bloodlines, largely, work and excel together. Her achievements as Marietta are astounding. Nearly 18 months of life. Multiple newspapers that achieved a journalistic and entertainment excellence that few have matched. The shepherding of Detroit- taking a new city as its first Godmother and leading it to where it is today.

And who can forget some of her sagelike parting wisdom, which echoes in Detroit like Washington's farewell address did over early America: "guys... I love you... greatest city ever... man I have to pee"

For these reasons and more, I submit an official, irrefutable dibs on her that whenever she returns (and of course, she will) she is mine.

I would also like to more immediately call dibs on Kizzy, since she is a spicy tamale pal. That is all.

Kates, I challenge your dibs on Kizzy.

Everyone knows Cow is the crew of choice.

It even has magical alliteration, beat that.

I already told kendra she can ride in my shark saddle, and she said she will be going with me.
