There's a little something... a speck perhaps... caught between the glass of my screen and the rubber gasket separating the black of the bezel from the aluminum of the shell. It's f*ing annoying. I've tried EVERYTHING from compressed air to a toothbrush to a piece of paper. Does anyone have any advice on how to get this out? I'd really appreciate it.

I've been sitting long time at Apple store and watching people clean up.
They use a very minimal amount of light spray on a towel and wipe things down...
My first choice for things like this before which worked was a fine microfiber cloth - in fact I have one in my bag for such problems, it's not the real fuzzy kind, it's fine.
Here's mine, and notice how fine it is:
Here's a larger shot - I use it for about 3-6 months and wash and repeat. And One drop of moisture much less a minor mist on a corner or middle does real well on the tough spots.
