Below is a system message I got saying that there was a problem with
my cron job "wakeup.cron":

Below is the cron job itself:
# Cron script to (hopefully) play an MP3 file to wake me up in the mornings
# at 6:00 AM Monday through Friday
#
0 6 * * 1-5 /usr/bin/mpg123 "/home/john/taco-puttin_on_the_ritz.mp3"
Ok...my question is as follows: What the heck is the problem? I do
NOT have the "0:" in there (I *used* to, but I removed it yesterday.)
Where did the system get that "0:"??? Do I need to reboot in order to
get changes to "take"???
Thanks...
