In Ruby 1.9, they are ordered.
Yes of course, I had forgotten that. So to answer the OPs question, how to show the first pair from each hash together, he could do <%= profile.keys[0] profile[ profile.keys[0] ] post.keys[0] post[ post.keys[0] ] %> obviously with some tidying up. Though I am not sure that is actually what he wants to do. Also if he is not using ruby 1.9 he may not get the results he expects.
