Allen,
   Thanks for the suggestions.  It is actually colocated so I cannot see
the screen or check the bios logs myself.  I can probably get my ISP to
check them for me though.  Nothing environmental "should" be causing it to
reboot as it is on filtered power, climate controlled NOC, etc.  It is a
Dell T110 so I am thinking the power supply is going bad.  Maybe I should
buy a new power supply but I can probably buy an entirely new server for
~$250 so if it costs even close to that I might be better off buying a
whole new server... or just going with Virtual machines as I would probably
end up saving money.
