Nice, palooka! I think I did a list like this on the eyes, way back when. :-)

Thanks reseetee! Your "The Eyes Have It" list is excellent! Another interesting anatomical area is the ear - lots of fun terminology. The more we explore words, the more we find, eh?

Definitely a new favorite. =)
You'd be remiss to leave out lobotomy, methinks. That might just be personal preference. In a similar vein, House, M.D. taught us about hemispherectomy. dendrites, Wernicke's area and Broca's area are a couple more possibilities.

All good suggestions Valse. Hemispherectomy is a beautiful word! Lobotomy makes me nervous - my friends & family think it would be perfect for me.

Ah, we've all had that experience of someone offering uninvited medical advice. ;-)
You're right, palooka--the ear is another good anatomy list subject! Hadn't thought of that.

I agree with you heartily about hemispherectomy. Glad to see you chose the verbal form lobotomize, too; it sounds aptly creepy.
