A "crunchy" Wednesday crossword, with enough tricky clues to slow solvers down, although, it is often a good idea to take it -- as they say in life, in Aesop's fables, and in this puzzle -- SLOWANDSTEADY. The constructor embedded most of the grid's humor in the top-left corner, with 3D, Don't knock until you've tried it, DOORBELL, running into 20A, One who whistles while working, REF. The placement of 47A, "Quiet you", quaintly, OHDRYUP, running into 49D, Fiji alternative, DASANI, was intriguing, as was the positioning of 1D, Water bottle confiscators, for short, TSA, far away from the aforementioned 49D. A fine Wednesday effort, we give it 5 squares on the JAMCR scale.
