More NYT headline writers not reading the story

 Climate Shocks Are Making Parts of America Uninsurable. It Just Got Worse.

None of this has anything to do with supposed climate change.  Wildfires in California and Hurracanes in Florida are nothing new.  What has happened is that a huge number of houses have been built in these areas.  Enough so, that an insurance company can be bankrupted by a single event.  It's that simple, but eww, scary "climate change" must be imagineered into the piece, at least in the headline, as there isn't much to back it up in the article itself.

You're only going to get that kind of guy when you're speaking Spanish.

This may not be an exact quote, since some bit of time has gone by since I overheard this snippet of conversation, as two diners walked past us on their way out.

I puzzled over it for a bit before concluding that it could have opposite meanings:

1.  There is a kind of guy I would like to get and I will only get him if I speak Spanish.

2. There is a kind of guy I don't want, but will be attracted to me, if I go around speaking Spanish.
