Jared, you sound like Tom Kyte. ;-)

You should also like 10g dbms_scheduler (typo?) as in 10g dbms_job is
being replaced. I was wondering what all_objects object_type =
'PROGRAM' was about in 10g, which caused me to look in the docs and
Asktom this week.

There are some examples of job scheduling tricks on Asktom if one
wants more examples, but I think Tim/Jared already solved the OP's
question w.r.t. v9.2.
