I have a script file in my cron.hourly that contains a good number of scripts I must call.

many more lines. etc.
Is there a way I can sleep random length to time before executing each but background each one so master script returns promptly. Something like.
sleep 15 && perl /scripts/create_graph.pl & should return promptly, another reply addresses the random part.
