Toasting the foot: is it really necessary?

[pattersong]

I'm one of these guys who spends some time toasting the foot. Whether it is the proper method is irrelevant to me.

I find it to be a great way to slow down a little and get into the relaxed frame of mind that I enjoy while smoking a cigar. As an added bonus, it offers the opportunity to appreciate the aroma of the smoke before I take that first puff.
