If you would like dynamic, text, then I suggest you use an AppleScript to
achieve this.

Try either googling "applescript" then whatever you would like to do, or
let us know exactly what it is (the date?) and we'll try to give you a
hand. The script below is an example of what you could do. Open AppleScript
editor, save it as a file (e.g. paste date.scpt) then open it in
Quicksilver. To alter how the date is displayed, change the "set
formattedDate…" line

*tell* *application* "System Events"

*set* formattedDate *to* (*current date*)'s date string & ", " & (*current
date*)'s time string

*set the clipboard to* formattedDate

*keystroke* "v" using {command down}

*end* *tell*
