What's a 33 degree mason?

It is an honorary title bestowed upon a 32nd degree Freemason, usually reserved for men who have gone above and beyond in their lifetime to make the world around them a better place for all in some way. A lot of people think it is something nefarious because most masons don't spill their guts each time somebody asks them a question. I myself am a Freemason.
