Although this is allowed, it is somewhat discouraged
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc138362.aspx).

"It is possible to assign any arbitrary integer value to meetingDay. For
example, this line of code does not produce an error: meetingDay = (Days) 42.
However, you should not do this because the implicit expectation is that an
enum variable will only hold one of the values defined by the enum. To assign
an arbitrary value to a variable of an enumeration type is to introduce a high
risk for errors."
