Hi Kevin!
You can accomplish this by writing a Joomla plugin that does these things.

There are example plugins in the Joomla wiki (I'm loitering outside and don't
have access right now, sorry!) and I believe there is a simple plugin example
provided in the 1.5 distribution.
Essentially think of Joomla plugins as database triggers and stored procedures.
When a specific event fires in the execution stack, any plugins for that event
are fired as well.
Hope this helps,
