advanced countdown

hi. i'm in need of some help with a countdown script.

"orders completed in the next [time] ship out [date]"

this needs to count down every day;
[time] counting down to 1pm every day (resetting immediately), if it is past 1pm then the [date] needs to display "during the next business day", and if it is before 1pm then it needs to say "today"

example;

it's noon - "orders completed in the next 1 hour ship today"
it's 3pm - "orders completed in the next 21 hours ship during the next business day"

is this possible on a non php page, or at all?

thanks very much for any help.
