In the Impala, after Sam shot the Crossroads demon, Dean asked Sam if there was something he needed to tell Dean. Sam said, "It's not your birthday." Dean said, "No." Then Sam said, "Happy Purim?"
Man, I have TOTALLY repressed S3, apparently. You'd think I'd remember Happy Purim!
It's funny, I never thought about the Dean using Jewish-isms thing as anything other than "a lot of the writers are Jewish."

That's the Doylist response! Watsonian's more fun!
John's parents could have had a mixed marriage, and maybe Dean has dim memories of Passover over at his Grandmother's place (but she died before Sam was born, so those memories are really dim). Bobby could *totally* be Jewish! (Actually, this seems fairly likely, for a Watsonian explanation.)
"Singer" is indeed a Jewish surname. I'll go along with Bobby being one of my people. :-)

My exact thought process was, "Or one of the hunters they saw a lot as kids was Jewish! Hey... Bobby's last name is Singer!"
LOL, it's crossed my mind on more than one occasion, P.M. It would totally set my heartstrings a-zinging if canon reveals Bobby to be a Member of the Tribe. I do a mean happy dance.
