Subject: using send to define object methods

Hello

If I want to add a method to a class, I can use send as shown below.  Is
there a similar way to use send to add a method to an object?

class MyClass
end

MyClass.send(:define_method, :poof) {'I say poof!'}

x = MyClass.new
x.poof # => "I say poof!"


I can define an object method as follows:

def x.object_poof
  'I say object_poof'
end

x.object_poof # => "I say object_poof"

I would like to use send to define object methods but I have not figured
out how.

Thanks
Dave Miller
