originally edited on a windows box, then copied over with a usb stick.
I suppose I better open it, copy it to mouse then paste it to a nw file-
or what? Please advise.

Dave's correct. That "^M" represents ctlr-m, and is the displayable
equivalent of the "Carriage Return" character. Windows text files
uses CR/LF (Carriage Return, Line Feed) characters to delimit lines of
text in text files. Unix uses only "Line Feed". So the extra carriage
return character is taken to be part of the text at the end of the
shebang line. And "/usr/bin/python" is not the same as
"/usr/bin/python^M"
Here's some background:

How and where did you create the file? If with an editor, which editor?
