Relative file paths with Applescript

I am trying to make Applescript that will open a file on a user computer without knowing the hard drive or username, assuming the file is in the same place in the user directory.

tell application "Finder" to open "/Users/jim/Dropbox/Getting Started.pdf" as POSIX file

works great and

tell application "Finder" to open "~/Dropbox/Getting Started.pdf" as POSIX file

not executed.

Is there any way to make this simple?
