MrDannyOcean ???

Two questions about this hand. First is about the limp pf. I often do this with what i consider to be marginal aces with other limpers limp before i do. For instance, I don't like to raise several limpers with A8, because if I'm called and the flop comes Axx, can i be comfortable trying to build a pot and get it in? However, in a limped pot when the flop comes Axx, i'm solidly ahead of everyone's range, and can bet for value, as well as play better on tricky flops because i'm not pot-committed. How do you feel about this limp?

Secondly, is there any reason to be calling here? I auto-folded this pretty much. I guess the limp is the more interesting question... as i can't imagine calling here. I smell a set.
