I came up with a eight letter word, several six and a few four letter words, CODED was the first five letter word I came up with, I don't know if there are any others because once I found the first one I stopped looking.

<< <i>CODED >>
Only upside down in a mirror.

DECODED
HOODED
CONDER (almost)
Take SWIMS, if you flip it around a horizontal line you get SMIWS. But if you rotate it you get SWIMS. Doops said to flip it upside. CODED flipped upside down is CODED.
Third five letter word BIKED
Fourth five letter word BIKES
Fifth word BOCHE
Sixth word BOCKS
Seventh word BODED
Eighth word BODES
I think I'll stop there
Edit: Oops I goofed S doesn't work when flipped eliminate BOXES, BIKES, BOCKS, and BODES. Still leaves me with four words CODED, BIKED, BOCHE, and BODED. I havent looked for others.

Then it was a matter of making a word out of them that worked. NISIN sure enough was a real word, but I had to look it up in the Dictionary first.
SWIMS doesn't pass the flip test.

That's a puzzle I don't want to solve.
<< <i>RADAR is a nice palindrome, but it doesn't work either flipped or rotated. >>
Nor does ROTOR!!
<< <i>"My Dixie Wrecked" >>
I'm not exactly sure how that's a puzzle. I do remember a song with that title was in heavy rotation at my preferred watering hole (along with Afroman's "Because I Got High") about three years ago. Both songs were mildly amusing the first time, but it didn't take long at all for me to get sofa king tired of them.

It's probably an anagram. I don't have the time or patience to do them.
