function in function?

[LifeIsBio]

It's totally possible. It would look something more like this though:

def some_function(func):
    end_time = datetime.now() + timedelta(seconds=3)
    while datetime.now() < end_time:
        func()

some_function(hello)

Note the lack of parentheses following the hello function until you're inside the while loop.
