Let's make this birthday one to remember.

92 years old (Born on January 05, 1933)

Happy Birthday, Alden Nowlan! May your day be filled with laughter louder than the applause from "Frankenstein: The Man Who Became God," and joy more lasting than "A Gift to Last." Your words have stitched together stories that electrify audiences—without needing lightning bolts or mad scientists.

Congratulations again on winning the Governor General's Award in 1967; clearly, you've mastered timelessness better than Frankenstein himself. Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much delight as your poetry has brought readers over generations—and may it inspire another masterpiece (or at least a hilarious limerick). Cheers to Canada's literary legend!
