I want to reopen the ActiveRecord::Base class in a Rails environment and is wondering about the best place to put the code. The new and altered methods should be used by all instances in the whole Rails application. Any ideas?

Your app has a lib folder for this kind of stuff.
Any .rb files you put in lib will be automatically required. So if you just
did
lib\active_record_patches.rb
module ActiveRecord
class Base
def self.foo
"hello world"
end
end
end
That should be it.
User.foo
=> "hello world"
