the gdalinfo is impressively long, here is the parts that I think are
important:
Size is 48980, 49445
Coordinate System is:

GEOGCS["NAD83",

my mapfile has: MAP EXTENT 1285920 1377857 1426390 1506589
so, yeah, the origin is not within the bbox. On an image that works, it
has:
Origin = (1329809.953999999910593,1463071.948000000091270)
which looks to be within the bbox. So how do I get the arial moved?
Why didnt putting the projection in the raster layer (or running
gdal_translate or gdal_warp) move it into the right bbox?

Huh? Does "spatial reference system" == "projection" == "Coordinate
System"? I dont know...

I got the bounds from a shapefile, its the largest one and covers
everything I want to display. See the ogrinfo below.

Well crap.
ogrinfo -so countyBoundary.shp countyBoundary

That means its in feet, right? Both my mapfile and OpenLayers are using:
+proj=tmerc +lat_0=35.83333333333334 +lon_0=-92.5 +k=0.999933333
+x_0=500000 +y_0=0 +ellps=GRS80 +units=m +no_defs
Does that mean mapserver is reprojecting to meters... thats probably why
OpenLayers can show it, right? The output of mapserver is meters and
OpenLayers is expecting meters. So that's not really bad, right? But
if I reproject the shapefiles it'll save me some cpu time, yes?
Would this affect the arials?
Thank you very much with the help on this.
