Redundant blank lines


void *foo (void)
{
        void *bar = faggot ();
        if (bar == NULL)
                return NULL;
        return anus (bar);
}

Or


void *foo (void)
{
        void *bar = faggot ();

        if (bar == NULL)
                return NULL;

        return anus (bar);
}

Do you sprinkle your code with redundant blank lines? When is it okay to do it?

I wonder how many professional programmers with deep insights into programming visits this board. I don't count Linus, as he has done a well job displaying all of his incompetence by GPL-ing his source. I'm talking Sussman and Abelson quality! Can I only count myself? That's it?
