class Hash
  def add
    # your code here
  end
end

But monkey-patching can be a Bad Thing(tm) so be careful. I would 
recommend doing your checks in your code, or maybe in a separate 
function.
Or, you could even create a real Record object instead of just a hash!

class Record < Hash
  # studd
end
