okay to answer everyones burning questions: who is josie?
Josie is a codename for his future wife at the time the song was written. They never wanted to put a real name into the song that way if something ever happened between the two of them then the song would still be cool and respectable and playable. if her real name were in the song then it would be wierd to ever play it again. personally i think this song is about his girlfriend at the time, and current wife because theyre still together now so she must be perfect for him and do all this stuff. besides he go into pretty good detail about what she does so it must be from personal experience.
does that answer all the questions?
"Josie" isn't his wife. He met Skye on the set of "all the small things". She was there with MTV as she worked for them at the time. Josie was written way before that. I think Marks wife must be better than who ever Josie was. They always look so happy in pictures and they have a beautiful son :)

U.L. = Unwritten Law D.H.C. = Dance Hall Crashers?
this is the best blink 182 song, either this or DAMMIT. this is like the ultimate highschool love song and i always think of summer and skateboarding and all that fun stuff when i hear this song
one of the very very few blink songs i love. this song is what got me into punk music [and away from pop shit]. the music video is soooo funny too. =)
so DHC is Dance Hall Crashers? i always wanted to know that. it's bugged me for YEARS.
it took me forever to figure out what UL and DHC was. :) dance hall crashers and unwritten law! i love them too. heehe check out some of their lyrics too
This is one of my favourite songs by them! it's about what Mark would describe as his perfect girl. One of the reasons I love this song so much is because my boyfriend changed his screen name on ICQ to Josie's girlfriend :)
I love Blink, i love this song, Blink also rock my world ahhhh Mark's in love with his perfect girl. Such a cool subject for a song. Blink 182 rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
