Well, well, well, if it isn't the Just Gridding! team back with another "Just the Grid"!  In case you need a refresher, this is an experiment that we run every so often in which we post a grid and crowdsource this clues. Unlike most themeless grids, which are often created with a particular voice and/or message in mind, the grids we use for these experiments are created especially for this purpose, so that we can solicit as many voices and fresh cluing angles as possible.
