That error means your query failed and the result set is not valid. You
can't use LIKE on a TIME column. 

Can you explain exactly what you want? How are you storing the times,
what are the times, what kind of data do you want to pull out of the
table?

I'll guarantee that there is one easy query to get exactly what you need
if you use the correct column types.
