I agree that this is creative and great.

However having the current time in the time grid is so useful that
I have now made it the default, no diary sexp needed.

If you don't like the way it looks, change the variable
`org-agenda-current-time-string' and the face
`org-agenda-current-time'.

To get rid of the current time in the time grid alltogether,
use

(setq org-agenda-show-current-time-in-grid nil)
