And in addition, do not spin the bearings with compressed air.

I've heard that many times, what is the reasoning?

If you spin it too fast and the outer land and cage can come off the
balls, it can take fingers off. I still blow 'em off, but I don't spin
'em much any more.

Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance. If the dispositions
of the parties are ever so well known to each other or ever so similar
beforehand, it does not advance their felicity in the least. They always
continue to grow sufficiently unlike afterwards to have their share of
vexation; and it is better to know as little as possible of the defects of
the person with whom you are to pass your life.
