Nefarious, as in, " 'He' is a nefarious kind of guy."

Its a seven letter word and names something that is found in Califorina, maybe elsewhere.~

Euforia, as in "the 'Forum Mom' gets a sense of euforia when she changes the wording of my posts." (just kidding, Melissa, you done right)

That one dosen't fly Cab. I do not find your spelling in my dictionary, euphoria I do find but it has 8 letters. Maybe if you went to the left coast and asked the squirlls.~

Does the word have anything to do with those tall trees, like redwoods?
