I assume that you are getting these times from somewhere, hopefully a
website. To do as Steve says, you would just scrape (or use the API if
there is one) to get the times, and schedule a tweet at that time. If you
do use cron you can make use of https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-crontab

Hi all,
I'd like to execute python script for specific times. I prefer not to
use cron, since this times will be very varies.
Example, my requirement is, this python script will execute at:
13:00:00
14:05:00
14:35:00
15:20:00
I know this is gonna be a long script to run. Check the time.ctime()
