Jane Austen, Oxymoron Phrase Analyst?

"Oh, my," said Jane Austen, Action Doll, wiping chalk from her forehead. "I like the idea of doing an occasional silent scream in my rock garden. And, to take a mud bath as I consider an impossible solution sounds wonderful." "Who wouldn't love the image of a group falling into a deafening silence after hearing the idle gossip?" Jane set the piece of chalk down on the table. "It is a sure bet being an oxymoron phrase analyst is not for me!" My theme for this year's challenge is Jane Austen, Action Doll, Seeks a New Career .
