This is sort of off topic, sorry but I want to make a correction.
To whoever said that you can't put the date in the menubar, you can here's how:
Go into the international preferences pane in System Preferences and click on the formats tab
Click Customize under the dates section. In the drop down box select medium. In the field under the drop down box highlight the Month and date boxes as if you were highlighting text. Right Click and select copy. Click the cancel button.
Now back in the formats tab click customize under the Times section. Select Medium. Click in the field where you want the date to go, right click and select paste. Now add any formating you're going to want such as commas and spaces. You will most likely want to put a comma and space in as the first characters in the field as the date and time will display in the menubar after the day of the week. The field when you are done should look something like this: ", Jan 5, 7: 08: 09 PM". When you are done click OK.
Its as easy as that. The only problem with this method is that I do not know if it will work in Leopard, but as far as Tiger is concerned-it is a grand work-around.
EDIT: Nevermind, simX beat me to it
