Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Kink play.
I saw a woman on Doctor 90210 last night hanging suspended by from rings in her back.
Okay, now I've read Jilli's answer. Sorry for the xposty question.
The only back piercing I can think of (whitefonted for the squeamish) is

Why would a person pierce an ear or an eyebrow or a tongue?
Miami Vice continues with the really cool casting. Liam Neeson just bought it in the last ep I watched--they've also had a really young John Leguizamo, Lee Iacocca, Bianca Jagger...just tons of people.

HAL, which stands for hybrid assistive limb, is a type of wearable robot or motorised exoskeleton.
Tsukuba University engineering professor Yoshiyuki Sankai developed HAL to help its operator perform tasks a normal human would not be strong enough to perform otherwise, according to the web page of Sankai's venture company Cyberdyne.

Wiseguy is a great show for this. The current (meaning the one I'm currently watching on DVD) arc has Stanley Tucci, Ron Silver, and, of all people, Jerry Lewis. The previous arc had Paul Guilfoyle (Brass on CSI) and Tim Guinee. The one before that, Kevin Spacey, Joan Severane, and Annette Benning.

Jilli's answer hadn't posted when I loaded the page, and asked the question.
Piercing like you linked to in that picture though? Do I think people ought to be free to do it? I absolutely do. Do I understand the motive for that sort of extreme piercing, the way I do for an ear piercing, eyebrow piercing or tongue piercing? Not so much.
(Okay seriously folks -- nobody thinks that a company called Cyberdyne building a robot named HAL is asking for trouble? NOBODY?)
