A hat for my astrological sign?
Aquarius... A diving helmet!

For my profile pic?
That depends on which pic I'm using, Ash.
One of the pics was taken and put up specifically to go with my signature emoticon...

The current one, combined with the caption, has really increased my views, flowers and mails.
Yes. Really.
Note that the caption subtly flatters women...just for viewing me.
Women really are quite simple creatures, are they not?
Nearly as much so as men, l should imagine.

NO one plays tonsil hockey (French kisses) like Aquarii, eh Ash?

AM---Astrology has its place. Good topic. But I prefer another method of divination. The ancient Chinese, no fools they, made great use of the patterns on the backs of tortoises to foretell weather, fecundity, fortunes in war and more. We have a big 20 Kg snapper who likes to inhabit areas about the creek behind our home here on the coast. Found her crossing a busy road one day, and picked her up, placed her in the back of the car (away from young twins at the time), and brought her here---been with us ever since. Will probably outlive this curmudgeon. Odd that she doesn't seem to wander---weekly head of lettuce and a carrot might help. One must take care with big snappers, grabbing them in a sweet spot on both sides of their beautiful shells. Too far aft, the formidable hind leg claws will scratch a finger to the bone. Too far fore, and she'll have a thumb for lunch. All artistically told in the song "My Dingaling" by the awesome Chuck Berry, who certainly knew a thing or two about Mississippi snapping turtles. Anyway, I've learned to hypnotize her with an old train conductor's vest pocket chain watch, and she'll stay long enough for me to cop a prediction or two. A refrain of "Waltzing Matilda" always breaks the trance. Not as accurate as throwing the I Ching, but can tell the general direction of the Dow Jones. Pretty good, considering that technically speaking, she's not really a tortoise. We named her Matilda, for reasons of serendipity. Roberto.

And miclee, the most valid things either Freud or Jung ever left for us was writing, "even if we were alive, we couldn't help you". Aa.

Agreed, Aa.
Anyone who'd go to a psychiatrist should have their head examined.
