All,

Ok, since there seems to be a push to use OpenLayers as a Client for
Mapserver, where do I add in a GeoMoose demo?

(simply stirring the pot. :c)

Thanks

I would recommend first reading: 

  http://workshops.opengeo.org/openlayers/intro/doc/en/

Which is an excellent introductin to OpenLayers.

After that, get something working as a WMS, then:

 http://geoserver.org/display/GEOSDOC/TileCache+Tutorial

Is a good TileCache Tutorial.
