		A tongue piercing is a piercing, placed in the center of the tongue to avoid hitting a nerve, and to avoid damaging the "webbing", the part under the tongue that connects the tongue to the bottom of the mouth.
		Surface piercings are any body piercings that take place on the surface of the body through areas which are not particularly concave or convex, where the piercing canal transverses a surface flap of skin, rather than running completely through a piece of body tissue from one side to another.
		Sometimes surface piercings are difficult to heal, because, as the body rejects the body jewellery as a foreign object, the jewellery is pushed to the surface, causing the piercing to grow out.

		(The exception being single-shaft catamarans, where the propeller hub intersects the undisturbed waterline.) In the case of articulated surface drive systems, the propeller shaft is driven through a double universal joint inside an oil-tight ball joint, allowing the shaft to rotate athwartships for steering and to trim up and down for control of propeller submergence.
		For fixed surface drives, the Levi Drive Unit is the most popular worldwide.
		Occasionally a vessel that trims well with conventional underwater propellers and no tri tabs is excessively bow-down with surface propellers, and the only satisfactory fix is a center of gravity move.

	Body Piercing Personal Experiences - Female Surface Experience
		I had been looking at surface piercings at www.bmezine.com and had seen some cleavage piercings, but none that particularly interested me. Anyway I was lying in bed and the idea came to me to get two bars, one on the side of each breast (effectively in my cleavage).
		The first piercing hurt a lot more than the second, which is pretty unusual, but neither of them caused any grief, and I would say on a scale of 1 - 10 they were about a 1 and a half.
		I highly recommend any surface piercing...they are fun and look great (just remember how tempremental they can be!!), and if you are in Preston needing a surface piercing, I highly recommend Body Adornment.
