It doesn't matter when dirvish-expire runs, but wasn't sure how to let 
dirvish-expire know about that image, since (I believe) it picks it from the 
run-all list (which I can't have, since I don't want it to run this image at 
3AM)

I wanted to run this at this time, due to a problem with SSH on their end. For 
some reason multiple SSH sessions can 'sometimes' disrupt each other leading to 
dropped connection. They have another offsite backup process running throughout 
the night for other files, and I don't want to interfere with that at all, 
since that backup (which I'm not a part of) is mission critical. If I can run 
at 4PM, I'd get my backup files without potentially hosing their backup.

Thanks for the response.
