 A .php file is not executable by itself. You may want to do 
 "/usr/bin/php -f /home/thufir/foo.php".
 Best to try that manually at first, before putting it in the crontab, 
 just to see if it works. (If it is a php file that is supposed to be 
 accessed via the web server, it will probably not work.)
