The time is now 9:36pm yet my clock says 8:49pm. When I go to the clock in the menu, the rainbow circle cursor pops up and I can't do anything to fix it unless I log out.
Everything on the top right such as the sound, wireless connection, battery, etc. I can't change due to the rainbow circle cursor. Everything else in the menu works though.

Try typing this in the Terminal:
killall SystemUIServer

Try trashing the Finder preferences....as the menu bar is part of the finder.

SystemUIServer � the program that manages Menu Extras like the clock � is not run by the Finder. It's a completely unrelated app.

Thanks for the correction Chuck. Some days it's best to stay in bed...

Nice 
I've had this happen to me too and I ended up logging out to fix it. killall SystemUIServer is much better.

This has been happening to me everyday since the 10.3.5 update. My 10.3.1 system was 100% stable, now I have the menu bar items and various Apple applications going into beachball mode regularly, and when this happens I am NOT able to force quit them, nor can I reboot/shutdown/logout.. any of those options brings me to a blue screen with a spinning ring on it, which hangs indefinitely (I have to use the hard reset button on the front of my G4/800 to reboot).

Good point, since that app hacks SystemUIServer, it could be the cause of the problem if it's installed, who knows.
