this for 1.9? if so i prefer this for L9

%w(red green blue).each { |color| define_singleton_method(color) { |&blk| blk.call } }

Tsk. You don't remember pairing and looking at this code, then saying this same thing?
Also you said you didn't want your name anywhere near this code. Gone and sullied it now haven't you?
And it's 1.8
