making a rotating or swing effect with scriptaculous shake?

I am trying to have an effect when moused over, the item does not shake from side to sid开发者_运维知识库e, but slides sort of like a clock pendulum rotating from 180-90 degreeds (or whatever, I can't remember the exact numbers right now). Is this possible with scriptaculous or another js library?

I found a library for JQuery that does what I want perfectly:
