Crontab shows the times as Mikkel said.

I checked the system logs and message logs early Monday morning and didn't see 
anything that stood out. 

My clock is correct and set to EST.

Did the Crontab -u root -l and the message was "no crontab for root."

Not that I am giving up, but I'll just have to watch and see what I can come 
up with at the next occurance.

Thanks for the input, everyone.
