Fluggelbinder- It's the little plastic piece on the end of your shoelace, or at least that's what Tom Cruise called it in the movie Cocktail.

Frizzen. The little cup on a flintlock rifle where you put the powder to fire the charge that is in the barrel.
By the way, the little thing on the end of a shoelace is an aglet.
The thing that holds up the lampshade is a harp.
The little piece of skin above your top lip with the two lines on it is your philtrum.
The red gooey dried up ketchup on the top of the bottle is fleen.
And last but not least, the small puff of air that comes out of a bag of chips when you open it is called snackmosphere.
Some of these are real. Some of them are sniglets if you remember Rich Hall.

Speaking of.....if you do everything with your left hand, except write, are you considered right handed, left handed or ambidextrous??
My daughter's boyfriend writes right handed, but he does everything else left handed!!

I think you have to be equally adept with both hands to be considered ambidextrous..
