Try this.

class Array

  def randomize
    duplicated_original, new_array = self.dup, self.class.new
    new_array << 
duplicated_original.slice!(rand(duplicated_original.size)) until 
new_array.size.eql?(self.size)
    new_array
  end

  def randomize!
    self.replace(randomize)
  end

end

Enjoy!
