He's toast.

Where does the expression 'he's toast' come from? Is it recent? Toast is edible, though it is but bread heated and browned; it has its uses, so what is the idea behind the expression?

What are your views on owning a lurcher from a puppy? There are 4 young children under 6 in the house. Do they require a lot of exercise? Do they cost much to feed? Thanks in advance....
