"Skin" as a term is gross to me but is that right? At all? (and thank you all for helping me do my job. owe you drinks!)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's got a header and stuff on the side that stay the same but the middle part changes depending on what page you are on.
It depends on how the webpage is built, though. Though "frame" isn't a real user-friendly term for most audiences.
Header and sidebar? I'm not sure there's one word to describe both of those.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Not as I've seen it used -- the parts you're talking about are header, footer, sidebar, if you're talking in physical layout terms; or nav bar (sometimes top nav, left nav) if you're talking function (since they're most often used for navigation). "Skin" isn't page structure, but the style you apply to it (like the way on some sites you can make your headers blue or read or some such shit).
Though "frame" isn't a real user-friendly term for most audiences.
Frame is also problematic because it can also refer to a specific way of coding the page, and there are other ways to do it.

Yes, I'm not concerned really with how it's built so much as how it will appear to a user. Actually, how it will appear to a user with some kind of sight impairment.

I see what you mean. Maybe I can just say all the pages of the site contain the following: and list the static elements.

Sounds good. All pages of the site contain top and left-hand navigation elements? (or wherever they happen to be)?

Oooh! an index to abandoned amusement parks around the country.
The Joker definitely has this bookmarked.
