"...the old cattle rancher who died and left his three boys to carry on. The ranch was renamed "Focus"--and why would that be? "
It's JH's riddle, not mine; I'll let him post the answer if he wants to.

Erm--I PM'd mine; couldn't figure any other way to stop poaching. Yes, diagonals are allowed. For ex.,
S E
A T
can be set, sea, seat, eat, eats, ate, sat, tea, or teas.
