I wear a kipah (skullcap) when not wearing some other hat. Even in the boondocks, they recognize this as probably being Jewish. I think being a kilted Jewish, mostly Welsh, Marine Vietnam veteran, makes me a minority enough for most purposes.

I did twice hear essentially the same phrase behind my back "expletive deleted, Yankee, anti-Semitic ethnic slur, homophobic slur!" Amazing that the only word suitable for this forum, Yankee, was the most vehemently spoken.
