How do you animate a line to move like a clock hand round a point?

Hi wh0cares,
If you want it to move slowly (without pausing),
You will need to create a duplicate line.
Here is a similar tutorial which you can try out:

If you want it to be ticking,
You will need to duplicate many clock hand.
check out the PowerPoint Heaven Showcase:

If ticking is what you want, feel free to post back and I will post more
details on it.

You use emphasis > spin but with a devious twist!

create the hand - a thin rectangle is good.
copy and paste it
position the pasted hand right below the original
set the pasted hand fill / line to none
select it all (both hands ) and group

Now try the spin animation on that!
 
He's really taken this "devious" thing to heart, has our John, eh?

Gotta love it.
